Characteristic flux behaviour in pressure driven membrane operations

Characteristic flux behaviour in pressure driven membrane operations 

GeneraJIy. the pure water flux through a porous membrane in pressure driven processes is directly proportional to the applied hydrostatic pressure according to 

If the results depicted in figure TI - 10 are plotted as J o versus In (Cj,). a straight line is obtained. This is shown in fisure Vn - II. 

The behaviour of the limiting flux depicted is typical for ultrafiltraiion and to les.ser e.xient for microfikration. Whereas the flux increa.ses with increasing pre.ssure in rever.se
